Cheetahcats, Just got back onto CoinTalk after being away for several months. Just wanted to clear up confusion that I might have caused....
Here are a few from my collection...all with some arguable level of American colonial relevance, cause that's my thing...
One I could use some help with... Here's one I could use some help with. Most of what I know about them is in the caption of the photo. John K...
Here's one I don't believe anyone has posted. It's a 1775 4 escudos (half Joe). This type was well known in colonial America. The second slide...

Just picked up another Ryder-3 and thought I'd share...

Sorry, loupe :)
Man, that would be cool! Have people found them at the site recently?
I really don't think there is one. At least I can't see anything under a 16x loop. Here are a couple more views. I do think that the pellet...
